Monique is a truly exceptional four bedroom home on a private road in Bursledon, extensively renovated to an outstanding standard.

Offering spectacular open-plan living, bespoke kitchen, multiple en-suites, covered entertaining terrace, landscaped garden, far-reaching views, gated parking for multiple vehicles and cutting-edge air source heating, solar and battery technology.

Set behind secure electric gates on a private road in the highly desirable Bursledon area, Monique is a truly exceptional and individual residence that offers a rare combination of scale, quality, versatility and modern technology.

Having undergone an extensive programme of renovation and regeneration by the current owners, almost every element of this remarkable home has been carefully considered, creating a property that is both visually impressive and incredibly practical for modern family living.

From the moment you arrive, the quality of the property is immediately apparent.

The electric gated entrance opens onto an impressive private driveway with parking for multiple vehicles, while a substantial garage with an electric roller door provides secure storage and further practicality.

Entering the property, the generous reception hallway creates an impressive first impression, with beautiful herringbone flooring flowing throughout much of the ground floor.

The sense of space is immediately noticeable, with the accommodation arranged to provide an excellent balance between family living, entertaining and flexible ancillary space.

To the front of the property are two substantial double bedrooms, both beautifully presented and enjoying excellent proportions.

One benefits from its own stylish en-suite bathroom, while a further luxurious family bathroom is also accessed from the main hallway.

The true centrepiece of the home is undoubtedly the magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining and living space.

Accessed through elegant double doors, this incredible room showcases the scale of the transformation undertaken by the current owners.

Exposed structural steelwork provides a striking architectural feature, while the lounge area benefits from a bespoke media wall, creating a fantastic focal point for relaxing and entertaining.

The kitchen has been designed and finished to an exceptionally high standard, featuring solid wood cabinetry, integrated appliances, quartz work surfaces and a substantial central island with a wraparound breakfast bar.

The attention to detail continues with a dedicated larder and pantry, providing excellent storage without compromising the clean and contemporary feel of the main kitchen.

A separate utility room has been finished to an equally high specification, providing additional workspace and storage while keeping the main living areas beautifully uncluttered.

One of the most impressive features of the main living space is the connection to the outside.

Bi-fold windows and bi-fold doors open directly onto the covered terrace, creating an almost seamless transition between the kitchen, dining and garden areas.

The covered terrace provides a wonderful sheltered entertaining space, with multiple seating areas allowing the garden to be enjoyed throughout the seasons and providing the perfect setting for everything from relaxed family gatherings to larger-scale entertaining.

The ground floor continues to offer exceptional flexibility, with a third double bedroom, contemporary shower room and an additional reception room.

This area has previously been utilised as separate ancillary accommodation, making it particularly useful for those looking to accommodate extended family or guests.

Alternatively, the space could be transformed into an impressive cinema room, games room, home gym, bar or additional family lounge.

The possibilities are extensive and allow the property to adapt to the needs of its new owners.

Moving upstairs, there are two further exceptionally generous double bedrooms, both of which benefit from their own en-suite shower rooms.

This arrangement provides an excellent level of privacy and makes the home particularly well suited to larger families or those who regularly entertain overnight guests.

Outside, the garden has been thoughtfully designed to be low maintenance while still providing a fantastic outdoor environment, with the covered terrace forming the main entertaining area and additional seating spaces creating a number of zones to enjoy.

Perhaps one of the property's greatest assets is the outlook.

The garden enjoys far-reaching views across King George V Recreation Ground, providing a wonderful feeling of openness and privacy without the responsibility of maintaining additional land.

The property also benefits from private direct access onto the recreation ground, offering an incredibly convenient extension to the garden and an ideal space for children, entertaining, walking or simply enjoying the surrounding open space.

The impressive specification isn't limited to the aesthetics. Monique has also been designed with modern energy efficiency very much in mind.

An advanced air source heat pump system powers underfloor heating throughout the home, while the property also benefits from the latest solar panel technology together with a battery storage system.

This combination not only complements the contemporary nature of the property but is designed to help significantly reduce the ongoing running costs of such a substantial home.

Overall, Monique is far more than simply a beautifully renovated house.

It is a carefully designed, highly individual residence offering an exceptional amount of accommodation, outstanding entertaining space, impressive outdoor areas and some of the latest energy-efficient technology Properties of this calibre, with this level of renovation, versatility, parking, privacy and outlook, rarely become available.

Monique truly needs to be viewed to appreciate the scale, quality and individuality of what is on offer.
